Lone star - realistic dildo by Vixen Creations, Inc - review by Sleeping Dreamer

I thought the Lone Star would be a fairly easy review to write, I expected to be able to try it a few times and then hammer out a review that sung its praises. However, I've had a little bit of trouble and I'm really on the fence.

To start things off on the right foot, I'd like to say that as far as aesthetics go this dildo is King. Its visuals are absolutely stunning, it's by far the most realistic I've ever seen. From its highly contoured shaft down to its wrinkled testicles, it's absolutely convinced me of what the perfect cock should look like. While the caramel color is not nearly as vibrant as shown in pictures, it's still as realistic as you're going to get. However, looks alone cannot carry a toy.

One of the major problems I had with this dildo was the weight. The properties page listed it at a pound but it feels heavier. Unfortunately, the weight is unevenly distributed, with half sitting right in the middle of the cock and the other half at the too narrow plastic base. While for some that wouldn't be a problem, when I held it out horizontally in the palm of my hand it drooped dramatically. The slight curve that it did hold when it was sat on top of my desk disappeared as gravity stretched and pulled the shaft out straight as an arrow.

Another problem was how severely solid it was. I wanted a firm dildo but how solid it was made penetration painful. Whenever I quickly pulled the Lone Star out to thrust back in, its straight shaft jabbed at my opening and pushed its way inside without caution. I could feel my vagina trying it's best to accommodate the pleasurably thick size but the weight of it caused made my muscles to tire quickly. It was so much heavier than a real penis, the weight was unrealistic and not enjoyable. With a real penis there's flexibility, there's softness, and the muscular tissue of a real penis has give to it, this dildo was like a brick and very uncomfortable to use for a prolonged period.

While my issue with its weight and firmness could deter some it didn't deter me. I have used this every day since it arrived hoping to be able to have better experiences with it and while I definitely do love it, the solid core and weight have thrown major obstacles my way. But to leave it's bestial properties alone, I'm going to move onto Vixen Creation's award winning material, Vixskin. When the toy arrived it was cold, giving it more of a silicone feel; however, as it aired out in my bedroom during a recent heatwave it soon mimicked the feel of cyberskin. Vixskin is truly the best of both worlds; you have the soft, velvety feel of cyberskin yet the hygienic qualities of silicone, and best of all it can be boiled to sterilize it.

This is a thick toy and for that I love it. The Lone Star's visuals and the feeling of the Vixskin really set it apart from the rest, but the heavy weight and its rock hard core keep it from becoming the little cock that could.
